Trials of the Black Throne (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798729405107)

Born of two worlds, oblivious to one, Onyx Jones has three days to save both.

As the only survivor of one of Chicago's bloodiest crimes, Onyx is no stranger to the spotlight. She hates it and wants nothing more than to be ordinary. It's taken her a decade to finally claim that status, but it doesn't last for long. The High Spirit of Penumbra calls and Onyx has no choice but to answer. She is the chosen Elite of the Orc kingdom of Oracaii, and must go to Penumbra to get there.

Onyx knows nothing about Penumbra, Orcs, or the other creatures that exist there, but she has to crossover into a parallel world and claim a throne she never knew existed. Aided by a cat shifter and a band of otherworldly rejects, Onyx is guided through Penumbra.

As Onyx navigates constant threats, she must also face her own inner demons and doubts. With the fate of two worlds hanging in the balance, Onyx's journey becomes a race against time. Failure means not only her own death, but also the ruin of the lives of those she loves.

Trials of the Black Throne is part of the Rise of the Elites collection. A shared world project, designed by Jessica Cage.
